6 rfENERAL JACQUES,WHO WAS AT FRONT WHEN THE WAR BEG AN, WITH BELGIAN PARTY Uhr York, ct. 11. Lieutenant tenefwl Baron Jacques, who, ac erdtng to his own assertion, occu led the "front seat in the front row" Aen the Germans opened the great iteraational "show" in 1914, is the Host striking member of the suite fblch is accompanying King Albert t Belgium on his visit in the United latea. Tali, straight as an arrow, ksoeiml Jacques looks like the fight kg man he is and has been from oyhood, for he is one of the pro- Udonal soldiers upon whom Bel ton relied when it made the great srlskm which held up -the Ger m Army until French and British tfdtos could get into action. Osnsral Jacques was in command f the Twelfth Regiment, one of be crack military organizations of ttglum and was stationed at Liege "here General Lepian was in com *T had never been Impressed by bo bombast of the German soldiery md I had full confidence in my own Den," said the General as he sat in ds plainly furnished cabin on board he George Washington on the voy go to New York and talked of the larly days of the war. People Wore Aroused "we first came in contact with the lermans on the bridgo at Vise, and tfter a sharp fight drove them back, ■touring the flag of the 97th Bran lenburg regiment. "That fight aroused the people, ad Immediately we had more than thousand civilian volunteers, dig ging trenches and helping in every say}possible. General Leman Issued INDIGESTION ; "Pape's Diapepsin" makes r. Disordered Stomachs feel fine at once I iAimps of undigested food cause pain. When your stomach Is acid and is gassy, sour, or you have heartburn, flatulence headache or dyspepsia, here is speedy relief —no Waiting. Eat a tablet or two of Pape's Diapepsin and Instantly your stom ach feels fine. All the indigestion pain, gases, acidity and misery in the stomach caused by acidity ends. Pape's Diapepsin tablets cost lit tle at any drug store, but there is no eurer or quicker stomach antacid known. How Mrs. Wolaver Was Saved From Indigestion ■tfered Twenty Tears. Now Hurts Anything. Second Dose of Bl nesta "Acted Like Magic" JlUJleted from indigestion over twenty years whiqh developed into stomach ulcer, ana told by family physician that she could not possibly Jive; relieved in fifteen minutes by 81-nesia and now able to eat any thing; is the story of Mrs. L M. Wol aver, of Hummelstown. Pa., as sworn to before Justice Richard B. Earnest, of Hummelstown. Pa. Thousands of others right here in Harrtsburg can tesify to the really wonderful relief to be obtained by taking three or four little Bt-nesia tablets. No matter how bad your ease may be, how long you may have suffered, or how severe the pains onay be, you owe it to yourself to try 81-nesia. It can't possibly hurt you and the chances are 10 to I that it will help you, and that, like Mrs. < Wolaver. you will soon be able to eat anything and will be telling your Sfrlends about it. If you want good ingestion—to be able to eat almost Mfything without fear of pain or dis icomfort to follow—go to Geo. A iGorgas or any other druggist and get a package of Bi-nesia tablets and •use as directed. If you aren't pleased iand delighted you can have your 50 tcents back for the asking—but not lone person in five hundred ever does. jThat's why you should always ask for "81-nesia, the stomach remedy that stops the pain in five minutes or money back." surer? Get at the Real Cause—Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets That's what thousands of stomach sufferers are doing now.

Little Bel gium proudly accepts the challenge. The Belgium Army will do Its duty. The people of Liege only ask to be allowed to do theirs"." During the discouraging days which followed, when the Belgian Army was compelled to retire from place to place until it at last had to give up Antwerp and begin its -slow retreat along the coast. General Jacques never doubted the final out come, and encouraged his men by pointing out that when they reached the Yser river the backward move ment would end. And so it did. "My regiment had orders to hold Dizmude till death and we did. Not until high command decided to evao uate the town did we leave our places," said the General. Still Fears Germans "The war is over, but the Germans still have arms and men. It is up to the Allies to see they do not use them again. I look upon the Ger man as a barbarian who still has in his heart the desire to conquer, because he is trained to it from the cradle. This war was not a war en tirely of the Kaiser's making. It was a war of the whole people, a war for loot. They believed they would be able to get to Paris in six weeks, and the booty they took would amply compensate for the ex pense of military operations." General Jacques has had an ad venturous career. As a young of ficer he went out to the Congo, and in the early nineties began his mem orable fight against the Arab slave traders. On one occasion, wlieu he and his natives were hard pressed by a large body of Arab slave traders, he killed eighteen of them with his own rifle. His adminis trative work in the Congo also was of a high order. He has been decorated 17 times, and wears the highest honors his country can give, while other countries have been only a little less generous in recognizing his abilities and valor. Scientific Discussions by Garrett P. Serviss Whenever a magnetic storm oc curs it is almost certain that the sun is at the bottom of the disturbance. "Old Sol" has been too often de tected behaving in a suspicious man ner on such occasions to leave much doubt in the minds of astronomers that he is the mischief maker. The only real question is: Just how does he do it? A widely accepted view is that of Maunder, which assumes that streams or shafts of electro-mag netic energy, in some form, go out from certain regions on the solar surface, probably within the limits of the spot-belts, and rotate like spokes with the turning of the sun on its axis. In these shafts the radiant energy is transmitted with a speed comparable with that of light, and where they strike the earth they give rise to a magnetio storm. The sun might be compared to a globe-shaped caisson-battery, ro tating on a horizontal axis, with guns projecting around its central belt, and pouring streams of pro jectiles. as continuous as shafts of water from firehose, out into the space through which the planets have to travel In their orbits. The streams swing round with the sun's rotation, and that is what giveß a peculiarly sinister aspect to this strange bombardment. Let us look at this a little. The diameter of the sun Is about 866,- 000 miles. Its radius la therefore 433,000 miles and its circumference about 2.720,000 miles. Its rate of rotation on its axist (it turns in the same direction as the earth), is such that it makes one turn In about twenty-five days, or 600 hours. Hence, any point on its surface ad vances at a speed of 4,533 miles per hour. That, then, is the speed with which the shafts of electric energy swing round at the surface of the sun. Or we may say that the pointing of any one of these tremendous solar guns, pouring out an unceas ing stream of projectiles, is shifted at the rate of '4,533 miles per hour, or about 75 1-2 miles per minute. But this is at the sun's surface. At the distance of the earth, which is 93,000,000 miles from the sun, the space swept over In one min ute by the projectile shaft becomes about 16,200 miles, so that In half a minute it would sweep acroes the entire diameter of the earth. Now, curiously enough, some re cent studies (of magnetic storms seem to show that they do begin at one edge of that side of the earth which happens at the time to face the sun, about half a min ute before they are felt at the op posite edge. The swinging shaft from the sun, moving spoke-wise, first strikes the earth at the edge of its wester.n or afternoon, side and sweeps in 30 seconds across its face to the edge of its eastern, or morning, side. This living in the presence, or in the sphere of influence, or of bombardment, of so dtspensive a center of mighty energies as the sun has its disadanveages, espec ially for nervously-sensitive peo ple, for, while the technical defini tion of a magnetic storm refers only to disturbances of the magnetic needle, and of electro-magnetic ap paratus, yet, as millions are con vinced by personal experience, there is some strange element, probably electric, in the weather changes that Is not accounted for by meteorolog ical tables, but which manifests its capricious powers for mischief in exceedingly convincing twinges. Possibly the sufferers from such vagaries might find a degree of comforting pride In the reflection that they may have faced and sur vived many a strj pmn of electric bul lets swept acrgil* the earth by one of the sun's machine guns, when their less sensitive neighbors were safe under the bomb-proof of nescience and obtuslty. Many of the solar shafts prob ably do not strike the earth, or any other planet. Some of them may be aimed above or below the plane of the planetary orbits, and even those which He exactly in the or bital plane of a planet may miss it, for during the time that the shaft is in an active state the planet may not be at the point where the stream of electricity crosses its orbit. How long a shaft remains active, and whether they break forth again and again at the same point on the sun's surface are unanswered questions. MEMORIAL PARK ADDITION The Suburb Unparalleled.— Ad*.
